Today I'll be working on the binding of a quilt I just got back from Kerry's Quilting. Kindhearted Klues turned out very cute with a frogs in a green thread. This is the first quilt I've backed with minke. It sure is soft. Morgan my youngest niece should love it.

Here's Kordova Klosure. I'm making it bigger with the additional pieces you see. I'm adding 12 finished inches all around. I may have to find some additional reds; I should be set with the blacks. Maybe I'll bind it in blue? I've cut 10 1/2" squares of black and white fabrics for the back. I've got somewhere close to what I need ready, but need to wait and measure just how many I'll actually need.

I'll be continuing through the week on Konnections to Kollinwood and Klunky Korners. Hope you are able to get into your sewing room as much as you want to this week. I've got a 4 day work week YIPPEE! Enjoy the extra day light.

Born and raised on the East Coast and settled in 1985 in the paradise called San Diego, California. I've a passion for scrappy, traditional pieced or paper pieced quilting. I enjoy the challenge of using my stash. I have strong thoughts of applique and hand quilting when I don't have to keep my day job. Quilting and sewing have been passed down in my family for at least four generations. I'm lucky to share this passion with my Mom.
